After several attempts, I used the steps below to complete the upgrade from the command line.<\/p>\n<p>Download the current Firmware version based on your server from the HP website. Extract the files from the download and copy the Bin file (in my case ilo2_215.bin) to an accessible directory on a web server. For example, I have a windows server running IIS 7.5. I navigated to the c:\\inetpub directory, and created a folder called firmware and placed the bin file there. To see if\u00a0you can access the file,\u00a0try\u00a0to access the file thru\u00a0your web\u00a0browser\u00a0by typing the following (replace the <em>servername<\/em> and path with the path to your directory):<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/Servername\/firmware\/ilo2_215.bin\">http:\/\/<em>Servername\/firmware\/ilo2_215.bin<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Download putty and open a session to the IP address of ILO for the server in question using port 22 as shown below:<\/p>\n<p><em><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pipe2text.com\/wp-content\/plugins..\/..\/uploads\/media\/upgrading-ilo-2-firmware-from-the-command-line\/image1.png\" \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Once connected, login with your ILO user name and password. You can also see your current version of ILO when your first login as shown below.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pipe2text.com\/wp-content\/plugins..\/..\/uploads\/media\/upgrading-ilo-2-firmware-from-the-command-line\/image2.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can type \u201cshow\u201d to list the directories.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pipe2text.com\/wp-content\/plugins..\/..\/uploads\/media\/upgrading-ilo-2-firmware-from-the-command-line\/image3.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>CD to the map1\/firware1 directory by typing the following.<\/p>\n<p>\u201ccd map1\/firmware1\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pipe2text.com\/wp-content\/plugins..\/..\/uploads\/media\/upgrading-ilo-2-firmware-from-the-command-line\/image4.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now type the following command replacing the web server url with your own.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201c<\/em>load -source <a href=\"http:\/\/servername\/firmware\/ilo2_215.bin\"><em>http:\/\/servername\/firmware\/ilo2_215.bin<\/em><\/a><em>\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You will see output as show below. You may have to wait several minutes for the update to complete. You can run a ping \u2013t against the ILO IP address and you will see it time out for a few pings and come back. You will also be disconnected from your Putty session.\u00a0These are good indicators that\u00a0the upgrade is\u00a0complete.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pipe2text.com\/wp-content\/plugins..\/..\/uploads\/media\/upgrading-ilo-2-firmware-from-the-command-line\/image6.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now you will have to sign back into ILO again using putty as you will have lost your connection during the upgrade. When you log back, you will the version number is updated as shown below.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: inline;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pipe2text.com\/wp-content\/plugins..\/..\/uploads\/media\/upgrading-ilo-2-firmware-from-the-command-line\/image7.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You are done.
